Where to find historical (country) data for Geolayers to draw maps?
I found this one but it seems to have only a few (very selected) years of data - https://github.com/aourednik/historical-basemaps

My lockdown side project: An interactive vintage map builder
Thanks for the compliments! The territory data is coming from https://github.com/aourednik/historical-basemaps, I use this data to render an SVG map with D3.js. This is pretty powerful since you can control every part of the rendering mechanism. With D3-geo you can easily do the projections and graticule.

I updated my app for visualizing country borders throughout history (2000 BC - 1994) with a globe view - historicborders.app/?view=globe
I found this repo with geojson data of historic country bounds and thought it would be cool to visualize it. The data is not mine.

An app I made for visualizing country borders throughout history (2000 BC - 1994) [OC]
The data is not mine. It is from here. I'm working on an editor for historians and who ever to work on visually updating this data right from in the app! so stay turned and hopefully all the data will be perfect in the future.

Kinda. I'm using mapbox to overlay geojson from a source

How to find out in which country a user is, based on his lat/long GPS coordinates?
What I would do now, is; use this library https://github.com/georgique/world-geojson load the polygon GPS lat/long data into postgresql or dgraph, and then just query in which country the coordinate/user is. BUT I need it in production, and I already know that I will run into problems and spend time to fix them and so on. And maybe performance will suck and I gotta spend time fixing that too.
What are some alternatives?
